14-5 Sep 25 (audiobook)
Silly but very fun YA alternative history depicting the three children of Henry VIII and Lady Jane Grey. Unlike the recent TV series (of which I have only watched one episode but will now resume), this is perfectly suitable for my history-loving 10 year old. I loved the elements of magic and that [spoiler alert], unlike the true history, many of my favourites get happy endings.

A lovely break from my Booker reading.

LeeRHarry I loved the book and the tv series - hope you continue to enjoy it! 😊 7d

Read this one last July before watching the tv show adaptation. Too bad season 2's cancelled.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When I first read this book many years ago, I absolutely loved the story, characters, and humor. I still feel the same after reading this for the second time, however it did lose a little bit of its magic after the initial read. Regardless, I still really enjoy this book and look forward to watching the new television series based off of it!

Absolutely LOVED the My Lady Jane adaptation on Prime. Easily one of the best shows of the year, and I love a mix of genres.

zezeki I watched it too recently, and loved it a lot! I will probably rewatch it this weekend. 😄 1y

LeeRHarry I thought it was fantastic too! 1y

Matilda @zezeki not a bad plan! I hope it gets a second season. 1y

Matilda @LeeRHarry I‘m SO glad it did both of having a complete ending and also left doors open for another season, which I hope it gets. 1y

My initial thoughts on My Lady Jane are as chaotic as the show--though maybe not as successfully--but here they are. https://youtu.be/GvHuwBIUN_Y

Think I may actually finish my reread today so I can finally watch the show.

I have read quite a bit about Jane, and only one or two other books about Katherine and Mary, so I was kept interested. With regards to Elizabeth I, this book sure looked at a different side to her, where she was so very worried about being outsted by others in her family to take over the throne. Katherine and Mary were next in line since Elizabeth had no children (alongside Mary of Scots). I listened to the audio and had no problem with it.
